• Abstract: Existing deep learning-based human mesh reconstruction approaches have a tendency to build larger networks in order to achieve higher accuracy. Computational complexity and model size are often neglected, despite being key characteristics for practical use of human mesh reconstruction models (e.g. virtual try-on systems). In this paper, we present GTRS, a lightweight pose-based method that can reconstruct human mesh from 2D human pose. We propose a pose analysis module that uses graph transformers to exploit structured and implicit joint correlations, and a mesh regression module that combines the extracted pose feature with the mesh template to reconstruct the final human mesh. We demonstrate the efficiency and generalization of GTRS by extensive evaluations on the Human3.6M and 3DPW datasets. In particular, GTRS achieves better accuracy than the SOTA pose-based method Pose2Mesh while only using 10.2% of the parameters (Params) and 2.5% of the FLOPs on the challenging in-the-wild 3DPW dataset. Code will be publicly available.

  Self-supervised human mesh recovery methods have poor generalizability due to limited availability and diversity of 3D-annotated benchmark datasets. We propose cross-representation alignment utilizing the complementary information from the robust but sparse representation (2D keypoints) This adaptive cross-representation alignment explicitly learns from the deviations and captures complementary information: richness from sparse representation and robustness from dense representation.

We show that the performance of these approaches can be surpassed by a light-weight and purely architectural architecture with only 0.14M parameters. An exhaustive evaluation on Human3.6M, AMASS and 3DPW datasets shows that our method, which we dub siMLPe, consistently outperforms all other approaches.

  We propose a coarse-to-fine approach to reconstruct 3D animal mesh from a single image. The coarse estimation stage first estimates the pose, shape and translation parameters of the SMAL model. The estimated meshes are then used as a starting point by a graph convolutional network (GCN) to predict a per-vertex deformation in the refinement stage.
